Pilling railway station

[4] The line was a single track, and a passing loop, which appeared to cross the adjacent road on the level, was provided at the station to enable the locomotive to run round the train.

Able to accommodate most types of goods including live stock, it was equipped with a half-ton crane.

[6] The railway company was bought out by the Knott End Railway and the line was extended to Knott End on 30 July 1908, at which time a second platform was built, so that the platforms were either side of the passing loop, the goods yard was extended and a goods shed provided.

A substantially larger station building was constructed immediately south of the southern platform.
